STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Side Crankshaft Bearing2 gap from Flywheel: 200 Millimeter --> 0.2 Meter (Check conversion here)
Weight of Flywheel: 1500 Newton --> 1500 Newton No Conversion Required
Distance Between Bearing1&2 of Side Crankshaft: 600 Millimeter --> 0.6 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

R_f1 = (c₂*W)/c --> (0.2*1500)/0.6

Evaluating ... ...

R_f1 = 500

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

500 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

500 Newton <-- Vertical Reaction at Bearing 1 due to Flywheel

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

Overhung Crankshaft

With an overhung crankshaft, you have the crankshaft supported at only one end and do not need a connecting rod with a split big end. This makes it a bit cheaper to manufacture and easy to assemble. But the connecting rod is now cantilevered so the load seen by the support bearing of the crankshaft, in this case, is piston force + moment load (due to offset) and needs to be considered when choosing the bearing for this kind of system. Designs with this overhung crankshaft generally use a double roll ball bearing or two deep groove ball bearing with a small distance between them to handle this moment load. This design is common in smaller air compressors with low working pressure. With a regular crankshaft, you have support on both sides which makes for robust construction. That is why you see them on engines, big compressors, etc.
